I"NS TEFUD O F r. iN( G HXX (F.D. What Electrician- %,ay of Taking Life by Means of a Battery. (From the New York Star.) Some New York physicians think that improvements in hanging are urgently needed. They want to make the death penalty easy, pleasant and delightful. Electricity has been proposed by them for capital punishment, and the Legisla ture yesterday considered a bill to sub stitute the electric battery for the hang man's rope. An eletilician at the E :son building in Pearl street. where electricity is man ufactured for illuminating purposes, was yesterday asked how people might be killed with neatness and dispatch by electricity. He said that it was the easiest matter in the world. All a con aemned man would have to do at the hour and moment when he was to leave the world for brighter climes, would be to.take hold of two wires, one connected viith a positive battery and the other with a negative battery. Acting thus as Aconductor between the two wires the electricity would go through him like a stroke of lightning. He would die in an infinitesimal fraction of a second. His taking off would be as painless as it was sudden. He would never know what had hit him. He might stand on two plates, receive the electric current through his toes and die with his boots on. He might sit in a chair with his feet resting on the plates and die comfortably. Kling the condemned by electricity is a-humane, civilized and scientific way of disposing of them. A man is usually sixteen minutes in dying at the end of a hangman's rope, and he usually suffers a great deal before death comnes to relieve him. A one-cell battery would kill all the prisoners who will ever be hanged in the Tombs under the present law. The only people oppose d to the use of elec tricitv in capital punishment are the hangmen, and they are opposed to it be cause it would throw them out of work. -If the gallows are taken down all the hangmen in the country will strike. BisHOP SiTPON'S TO3B. The Beautiful 1ausoleum Erected by Mrs. Simpson in West Laurel Hill. (From the Pbiladelphia It-cord) On the edge of a declining slope in the northwestern part of West Laurel Hill Cemetery stands the grand mausoleum erected io the memory of Bishop Simp son by his widow. It occupies an eleva tion overlooking a beautiful landscape, through which wends the narrow Schuylkill. The structure, composite gothic in style and cruciform in shape, is 22 by 18~ feet in dimension, includ ing the wings at the side, and 21 feet high from its base to the top of the crosses on-the main building. It looks like a'miniature church. There are five windows and four trefoils of cathedral stained glass giving light to the cham . ber which is 19 by 10 feet in the clear. Eight catecombs, four on each side. bt of white Italian marble, occupy the wings of the structure, while in the centre of the chamberis the sarcophagus in which rests the dead body of the bishop. Upon the end of the tomb is the in scription: "I shall be satisfied when I awake in Thy likeness." Then follows: "Matthew simpson, Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Born, June 21, 1811. Died, June 1S, 1884." The lot upon which the mausoleum is erected is circular in shape, ninety feet in diameter and surrounded by a granite coping. The prevailing feature of the whole structure is its simplicity. THE SOUTH'S IP OVEMENTS Some of the Leading Companies Organized Last Week. The Tradesmnn's weekly report of new enterprises in the South shows that the remarkable development that has been in progress for some months past *in all sections of the South is onthe in crease. Among the leading orgarizations of the week reported by the Tradesman are the following: * Kentneky &c Arkansas TLand Company, of Louisville, Ky., capital, 52,500,000.

The law provides that the reads im Andeisen county must be worked enouigh days to put and keep them in thorough order, and the pro visions of the bill are stringent enough to accomplish this end. There is, also, a smanll ievy made for macoatmiang parts of of the road which are so spomgy that ordli -nary work cannot cure the defects. The law is an exellent one and we wish it had been cxtecded to tits county. The howl is raised principally by Mir. 31urray's oppo nent, who would ;ee any opportunity to render him unpopuiar.--<patanflourg H~er a1M.
